NightFloyd Transcript:
Like ClubFloyd, the idea behind NightFloyd is that a group of people meet online to cooperatively play a game of interactive fiction. ANOTHER WARNING! A lot (most!) of the transcripts contained on this site are, shall we say, family-friendly. This is not one of those entirely family-friendly transcripts. Just so we're clear. (Though most of it's fine, and the game in question has its own in-game warning, so read on, gentle reader.)

Zach asks, "What's the game tonight?" | ||
genericgeekgirl says, "Dunno." | ||
genericgeekgirl says, "We were playing Blue Lacuna. Or we could play through more Ectocomp offerings." | ||
Zach says, "I vote for Ectocomp, but that's because I missed some of Blue Lacuana. I am fine with that game being finished." | ||
DavidW says, "Ectocomp is fine with me. I didn't map any of Blue Lacuna." | ||
genericgeekgirl arrives, full of funk, but no fun. | ||
